Halloween is a great opportunity to celebrate, and if your celebrations involve cannabis, we have plenty of ideas for a fun, safe and responsible holiday. Whether you’re partaking at home with friends or by yourself, use these tips for a great Halloweed.

Spooky Strains

Truthfully, any strain is a great strain for Halloween. But to stick with the theme, these are especially spooky options.

Ghost Train Haze, Nature’s Chemistry

This strain is high-THC sativa, making it ideal for an array of Halloween-y activities such as costume parties, pumpkin carving and more. Sativa strains may help encourage creativity and focus, while the terpene beta-caryophyllene in this strain gives it flavor notes of sweet spices.

Deadhead OG, Bluebirds

A sweet indica is the perfect pick for spending a cozy night at home. High in terpenes, this limonene-rich strain has fruity, citrusy notes. Grab these prerolled for convenience.

Jack, Prospectors Disposable Vape

Is this strain named after a jack-o’-lantern? No. But for the sake of Halloween, we can pretend. This sativa-dominant disposable vape is discreet and features high terpinolene properties, giving it a citrusy, woody flavor.

Responsible Consumption Tips

Arrange for a safe ride

If you’re planning on partaking at a friend’s house, make sure you have a plan for getting home. A designated driver, rideshare or taxi are all great options.

Be careful when drinking alcohol

Mixing alcohol and cannabis can heighten the effects of both and can catch consumers off guard.

Eat, hydrate and enjoy

Spend Halloween with people you like, enjoy and vibe with. Don’t forget to drink water and eat.

Keep your edibles safe

Keeping your edibles stored responsibly is always important, but especially around Halloween when treats are abound. Store edibles in a lockable box or childproof containers. Not only will that ensure they don’t fall into the wrong hands, but it will keep adult treats fresh for longer periods of time. Don’t forget to label your edibles and note the THC percentage.

Halloween Movies for Consumers

What’s better than a chill movie night at home? If you’re in the spirit, but don’t want to go full horror film, here are silly, campy movies perfect for kicking back and watching with a bowl of candy.

Scary Movie: There’s five of them, and they’re all perfect for a goofy watch party!

Freaky: A teenage girl switches bodies with a bloodthirsty serial killer—it’s fun!

Tucker & Dale vs. Evil: This spoofy comedy will keep you laughing throughout and has just enough gore to feed your Halloween bloodlust.

Gremlins: A true ’80s classic, Gremlins is bizarre, somewhat spooky and very silly. If you don’t watch it this Halloween, consider it for Christmas instead. It holds up across the holiday season.
